Loved and Missed xx

Will miss you Brenda the lady whose favourite phrase was"even if I am wrong I am right" thanks for the past years we spent together in Tenerife.

In memory of a much loved friend, missing you loads Bren.

Thank you Brenda, for your constant kindness, care, concern and support. I loved knowing you, laughing with you, and nattering with you - which you so loved to do. Safe journey home, and I will see you there one day. Get the kettle on because we'll have a lot to catch up on xx

A very worthy cause these people do an amazing job

Our friendship began nearly 60 years ago when we became neighbours and we kept in touch with you and Eddie wherever you moved .Enjoying spending time with you both at home and abroad.
Such fantastic memories, thanks for your friendship and all the fun we shared.

Mum was a person who enjoyed the simple things in life. Never liked to rock the boat or upset anyone or put anyone out but always there for everyone else. Her unbounded energy before she got ill was a reflection of her mother (nan) who also zipped around like a whirlwind and mum inherited that trait. Always stayed true to herself and that is demonstrated by the sheer amount of people that became good friends over the years from far and wide especially the foreign holidays - would talk to anyone our parents. Bought both Andrew and I up to have the same values and to always respect others and be grateful for the things in life we had achieved. Treat others how we expected to be treated ourselves. Both mum and dad gave us a great start in life and the help whenever we needed it but were equally as quick to bring us back down to earth or clip round the ear when needed. Its easy to see your own character traits you inherit from your parents and I guess I follow mum in many which I am particularly proud about. So sad that her last years were not zipping up and down to the bowling green and enjoying her time after the amazing job she did with dad during the 2 years of his illness. But until that point she had an amazing life and saw plenty of the world, a better world than we live in now so very happy for that and that now she is at rest with dad and not enduring the daily struggles, despite which she still remained upbeat and zipped around Flowers Manor as best she could rounding everyone up. Will always remember the happy times but took comfort in the fact the Flowers staff loved her like most other people did and she is not gone just somewhere else in the Universe on the next part of her journey. Miss you mum love you :(

In memory of our dearest friend

Brenda was indeed a lady full of fun and laughter,she was a force to be reckoned with in the loviest of ways.
Both Chris and I are sad to say goodbye to a truly good friend,we won’t forget out times spent together along with Eddie.
True friends don’t ever leave you,they have both just flown away on holiday….until we all meet up again.

Mum was a force of nature. Her vibrant spirit illuminated every room she entered, and her laughter was infectious. Everyone she met was drawn to her warmth. She approached life with a contagious enthusiasm, leaving an indelible mark on everyone fortunate enough to know her.

Bren, thank you for nearly 50 years of friendship. You were one in a million. Our happy holidays and great times together with you and Ed will always be cherished. We are so sad to lose you. Even though we never got to say goodbye, we hope you are now at peace. You will always remain in our hearts.💕💕 Rest in Peace. We will have a few ouzos for you in Zante!
